You’ll be staying in a beautiful old house in Bangkok’s Chinatown, on a street quite well known for its hipster cocktail bars and speakeasies. Location-wise this place is great, you can walk to the main Chinatown strip quite easily and there’s loads of food and drink within a couple of mins of the house. It’s a great place to explore Chinatown and the Creative District.
The house itself is just like the photos. Rustic and vintage, with a beautifully aged balcony overlooking the street below.
Street noise is a bit of an issue though. There’s not a lot of insulation between the bedroom and the street or the buildings surrounding. Expect tuktuk engine noise late into the night, random pots and pans clanging around in neighbors houses, young people chatting away as they exit the bars late at night. This is all pretty much as I expected, given its location. But you might want to pack some ear plugs to help you sleep! I’d stay here again though, for the ambience and the location :)
